Jabber protocol porting

Hello,

to add some little bit of positive news, I wanted to inform, that I've
returned to Kopete porting and fix some issues in the Jabber protocol. I
pushed the code to my clone of Kopete repo on GitHub to not push
preliminary changes to main porting branch, so here's the code:
https://github.com/aclex/kopete/tree/kf5-jabber-iris.

Some time ago we discussed with Pali on some issues in the upstream XMPP
library, libiris, and ways of experimenting with it to possibly change it.
I tried to port the protocol with it at first, and it turned out, that the
actual change to upstream needed is quite trivial and extremely small:
https://github.com/psi-im/iris/pull/39. Hopefully, it would be merged and
we can synchronize it to have Qt5-compliant internal tree. Switch to QXmpp
still remains a sweet option, but it seems more wise to make all this
consequently and finish the port first, before changing something else.

Apart from that, most of changes were kde-dev-scripts/kf5-driven, so to my
rough testing most of windows I managed to touch work as expected. SSL
connectivity doesn't work for some reason, as far, as I see it's something
with libiris/QCA2-qt5 interaction problems. Still, it works and the
functionality loss is less now.

I think, there's a couple not ported protocols remaining in the tree, I'll
try to fix it, too. And overall application looks a bit unstable for now,
though I use it for everyday chatting for about 2-3 months already (I mean,
KF5-partially ported version).
